Original Lyrics

Έλα Χριστέ και Παναγιά (2)

Έλα Χριστέ και Παναγιά και Δέσποινα Μαρία
και Μιχαήλ Αρχάγγελε να δώσεις ευλογία.

Γέρνει ο ήλιος φέρνει βόλτα
μπρος στης νύφης μας την πόρτα.
Αηδόνια άγρια κι ήμερα
να κελαηδήστε σήμερα.

Η νύφη είναι όμορφη σαν το ροδί μαντίλι
σαν τ’ αηδονάκι που λαλεί το Μάη και τον Απρίλη.

Νύφη μας τρανταφυλλένια
βγήκες πια από την έννοια.
Τραντάφυλλα μαδήσετε
νύφη, γαμπρό στολίσετε.

Γαμπρός μας είναι άξιος καράβι ν’ αρματώσει
του καραβιού την άγκυρα να τη μαλαματώσει.

Ω, γαμπρέ μου σένα πρέπει
το ρολόι μέσ’ στην τσέπη.
Γαμπρός δεν είναι μάνας γιός
μον’ είναι λεμονιάς ανθός.

Γαμπρός μας είναι ήλιος κι η νύφη μας σελήνη
και ο κουμπάρος ξακουστός σ’ όλη τη Μυτιλήνη.

Άξιος, άξιος ο κουμπάρος
τιμημένος είν’ ο γάμος.
Ως το πρωί θα τραγουδώ
κουμπάρο, νύφη και γαμπρό.
